How to give Axis Studios access

This first round is all about visibility — letting us see how everything's connected so we can plan your new website and SEO around what you already have. It's not the rebuild yet, and we're not taking over your systems. Most of these take under 2 minutes. Anywhere a tool asks who to add, use the email below.

For every Google / WordPress account, add this email:This is your Axis Studios contact email
gowarren88@gmail.com
🔑 Now — so we can see how everything's connected

This first phase is about visibility, not the rebuild. We're just looking at how your site and systems work today so we can plan around them — nothing changes and we don't take anything over.

1

Pause the bot-protection (ask CWS)

Why: so the tool we use to read every page for the audit can actually get in.

  1. Your website provider, CWS (Commercial Web Services) confirm who manages the site, runs bot-protection that blocks the automated tool we use to read every page for the audit.
  2. Ask CWS to briefly pause it while we run the scan — it only needs to be open for a day or two, then they turn it right back on.
  3. (Also ask CWS for your sitemap — the list of all your pages — usually at /sitemap.xml.) Their bot-protection is currently blocking us from grabbing it ourselves, so the quickest path is for them to send it over.
Easiest version: just forward us the name and contact of whoever manages your website at CWS, and we'll make this request to them directly on your behalf.

Google Analytics (GA4)

Why: this tells us how many people visit your site, what they do, and which pages turn visitors into leads.

  1. Go to analytics.google.com and sign in.
  2. Click Admin (the gear icon, bottom left).
  3. In the Property column, click Property access management confirm on screen.
  4. Click the blue + (top right), then Add users.
  5. Type gowarren88@gmail.com.
  6. Under roles, choose Viewer, then click Add (top right).

Google Business Profile — both locations

Why: your Google Maps listing is where local buyers find you — we need to manage it for both the Wichita and Garden City profiles.

  1. In Google Search, search your business name (e.g. "Lift Parts Service Wichita") while signed in — your profile's management panel appears.
  2. Click the three-dot menu (⋮), then Business Profile settings confirm on screen.
  3. Click People and access.
  4. Click Add, type gowarren88@gmail.com, choose role Manager, click Invite.
  5. Repeat for the second location: do the same steps for your Garden City profile so both are covered.
If you manage both from one dashboard, you can also go to business.google.com, pick each location, and follow the same People-and-access steps.

A look at the WordPress back end

Why: this is where your website's pages and settings live — a peek lets us see exactly how the site is built before we rebuild it.

  1. Log in to your website's admin area — usually yourdomain.com/wp-admin confirm the exact login link.
  2. In the left menu, click Users, then Add New User confirm on screen.
  3. Email: gowarren88@gmail.com · Username: axisstudios · let it generate a password.
  4. Set Role to Editor (a view/edit role — not a full takeover), and make sure "Send the new user an email" is checked.
  5. Click Add New User.
Don't have a WordPress login handy? No problem — we can do this on a quick 15-minute screen-share instead. Just say the word and we'll send a time.

A look at your inventory, parts catalog, customer portal & Pipeline

Why: so we can build your new site around these systems and point to them cleanly — we're keeping them, not replacing them.

We're handling your new website and SEO, and we're keeping your inventory system, your "special mail order" online parts catalog plugin, customer portal, and data feeds — we just need a look at how they work so we build the new site around them and point to them cleanly.

  1. For the inventory system, customer portal, and your "special mail order" online parts catalog plugin (theonlinecatalog.com): these run through your website provider CWS and/or the catalog plugin's own vendor. We're going to link to the catalog plugin, not rebuild it — it's a third-party plugin you don't manage, so we just need a look at how it works and how it feeds into your site. Email the vendor and ask them to give Axis Studios a login or a guided look — or just forward us their contact and we'll arrange it directly.
  2. For Pipeline (your customer-relationship software): we'd like view / read-only access — just to look, not edit — and please tell us who on your team runs it (name and contact). It stays managed in-house by your team; we only coordinate on how website leads feed in.
🛡️
You stay in control. Everything above is read-only or manager-level access that you can remove at any time, and nothing here touches your inventory, your parts store, or your accounts — they keep running exactly as they do today.

Stuck on any of these?

Don't sweat it — these tools change their menus constantly. Call or text us and we'll do any of them with you on a quick screen-share.
